Okay dis tab is pretty straightforward although u might find the riff at the end a bit
tricky but the main thing to do if u get stuck is to play it over and over. It's not
100% perfect but it close. Im still not sure of the harmonics either. Also ive got
feelin some of u might think da chorus is wrong but I assure u dat if u play it to
speed it fits perfectly. Enjoy!
